PRS Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Emerald Smokeburst Non 10 Top

This is the PRS Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Emerald Smokeburst Non 10 Top. This is a brand new 2017 model. Typically 10 Tops are some the best Maple Tops PRS has for their core models. Every once in a while a Non 10 Top slips out that could pass for a 10 Top. This is the case here and it is a custom color called Emerald Smokeburst. In addition this PRS has Emerald Maple Binding that looks amazing. The Custom 24 is the original PRS guitar Paul Reed Smith took to his first tradeshow in 1985. This is the guitar that put PRS on the map. It is a classic. This guitar is a workhorse that serve you well playing all types of music. A perennial favorite with musicians, this model features a Pattern Thin mahogany neck and 85/15 treble and bass pickups wired for the redesigned 5-way blade switch, which offers a dual humbucker option for the first time (see switching positions in product specifications below).

They are very articulate while providing rich harmonic overtones. Every note rings clear. They have a more pronounced high/mid range, less of a low/mid range, and bass notes that are rich and warm.

The PRS Pattern Thin Neck Profile was perfected after years of prototyping. The Pattern neck is an updated Wide Fat PRS neck style based on designs Paul Reed Smith did in the '70s and '80s for Carlos Santana, Peter Frampton and Howard Leese of Heart. The "Pattern Thin" has a more narrow and tapered feel than the "Pattern Neck" Profile
